Trump Media names interim CEO as Devin Nunes steps aside amid losses

Trump Media & Technology Group on Tuesday named an interim CEO as Devin Nunes steps aside, marking a leadership transition at the parent of Truth Social following recent board departures and significant financial losses in 2025.

The company has named longtime adviser Kevin McGurn as interim CEO effective immediately, succeeding Nunes, who has led the company since 2022. McGurn brings more than two decades of experience across media, communications and advertising technology, according to the company.

The leadership change comes as Trump Media continues to report significant revenue-related losses. The company posted a loss of more than $712 million in 2025 — on an estimated $3.7 million, according to its annual filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission.

Financial disclosures show expenses far outpace revenue, including more than $576 million in operating expenses. A large portion of the loss was tied to write-downs and losses related to digital assets, highlighting the company's exposure to volatile investment environments.

“I want to thank Devin Nunes for his dedicated service to the Company over the past four years, and congratulate Kevin McGurn on his appointment as interim CEO,” Donald Trump Jr., a board member, said in a statement.

Nunes said the change comes as the company enters a new phase, adding that it was “the right time” for McGurn to take the helm while focusing on other roles, including chairing the President's Intelligence Advisory Board.

The leadership change follows a series of recent board departures disclosed in regulatory filings. Former US Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer resigned from the board in March, and director Eric Swider resigned earlier this month. The company said that in both cases there was no disagreement with the management.
